Summary
- Norwegian Air Shuttle stock has appreciated 12% since my buy rating in November 2024, outperforming the S&P 500's 5.7% increase.
- Despite strong revenue growth, the company's earnings were negatively impacted by currency losses and higher lease costs due to Boeing delivery delays.
- The price target has been revised from $1.48 to $1.32, reflecting a slight decrease in EBITDA and adjustments in free cash flow projections.
- I maintain a buy rating due to potential 34% upside but note risks from currency fluctuations and increased operational costs.
